The Society for Human Resource Management has conducted research to determine how the HR profession is perceived by other, non‐HR executives. The results present a mixed acceptance of HR professionals. The author contends that successful HR professionals today and in the future must be competent, curious, courageous, and caring about people—the four Cs. Each area is broken down into separate components, and examples from various companies' HR roles are used to demonstrate how each quality works to make the HR function an inherent valuable asset. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
